The plan gathers roughly twelve hundred strength near Cadia, enough to overwhelm an approaching force of about four hundred before turning against a separate threat of about eight hundred. Enemy forces occupy undefended systems but divide their fleets in the process. Temporary territorial losses are acceptable because the concentrated fleet can meet each smaller group with local superiority. An original strength of roughly eight hundred later appears split into two groups after one half has already been defeated. These are game values, but the sequence gives a compact demonstration of concentration and defeat in detail at the operational level.

A divided enemy fleet creates an opportunity for defeat in detail
The campaign map illustrates how a concentrated fleet can cover Cadia, destroy a smaller attacker, and then exploit an opponent that divides its larger force.
